Bias and MSE
We estimate the unknown mean θ of a random variable X with unit variance by forming the sample mean Mn=(X1+⋯+Xn)/n of n i.i.d. samples Xi and then forming the estimator
Θˆn=13⋅Mn.
Your answers below can be functions of θ and n. Follow standard notation and use 'theta' to indicate θ.
The bias E[Θˆn]−θ of this estimator is:
